“…Thus, the aid intensity could vary from 0 to 13 points depending on how much help is spent by the caregiver. b.2) Cognitive demands: identified from the application of the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) 10 . Originally used for screening and staging of dementia, it was used in this study to assess the caregiver about the cognitive functionality of dependent elderly in the areas of memory, orientation, judgment and problem solving, community relations, home and hobbies and personal care, generating the following interpretation for their scores: 0 = normal, 0.5 = questionable, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe.…”

Objective:to derive psychometric indicators of construct validity and internal consistence of the Zarit Burden Interview scale for caregivers, describing associations of the scale with metrics related to care demands, coping strategies and depression in aged caregivers. Method:crosscutting descriptive and correlational study. The convenience sample was composed by a hundred and twenty one senior caregivers (Avg=70.5 ± 7.2 years, 73% women). They answered a questionnaire to check the physical and cognitive demands of care, the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI), the California Inventory of Coping Strategies and the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15). Results:ZBI showed good internal consistency and also for the three factors emerging from factor analysis, explaining 44% of variability. ZBI is positively related with objective care demands (p < 0.001), depression (p = 0.006) and use of dysfunctional coping strategies (p = 0.0007). Conclusion:ZBI is of interest to be applied to aged caregivers and the association of higher degrees of burden, dysfunctional coping and depression show a vulnerability scenario that may affect to older people taking care of other elderly.

“…On average, the caregivers had provided care for 40. or high (≥57) scores on the burden scale. The functional independence [23][24][25] , stage of dementia 26,27 and perceived burden 28,29 subscales exhibited high internal reliability, indicated by Cronbach´s alphas of 0.935, 0.947 and 0.872, respectively ( Table 2).…”

“…the main medical diagnosis of the elderly care recipients (through an open item), their level of physical dependence, measured by the Pfeffer Questionnaire of Functional Activities [23][24][25] and their level of cognitive dependence, assessed by the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) [26][27] . These two scales are commonly applied to surrogate informants when the level od dependence of the elderly impairs their ability to respond.…”

“…Each category was scored from zero to three points (0 = no change, 0.5 = questionable dementia, 1 = mild dementia, 2 = moderate dementia and 3 = severe dementia), except for the personal care category, which did not include the score 0.5. The memory category received the most weight in the evaluation 26,27 . The final classification of the CDR is obtained by the analysis of the classifications by categories, following a set of rules elaborated and validated by Morris 26 .…”

Objectives: to describe patterns of use of time in family caregivers of elderly people with dementia, considering the characteristics of the caregivers, the care recipients and the context. Method: Fifty family caregivers of elderly people with intermediate and high levels of physical and cognitive disability participated in an interview about time spent on obligatory care activities over four periods of six hours during a 24-hour period. In addition, a questionnaire about social activities, scales of physical and cognitive functionality of the elderly and an inventory of burden in the family caregivers were applied. Results: 88.0% of the caregivers were women, with a mean age of 57.9 (±11.2) years; 45.92% of the time of the caregivers was used in care activities, 36.92% in discretionary activities, 31.17% in recuperation, and 25.67% in the obligatory activities of the life of the caregiver. The greater the dependence, the longer the care, the less time for self-care and greater the caregivers’ subjective burden. Conclusion: The level of dependence of elderly persons affected by dementia results in an increase in caregiving time and competes with other activities performed by the caregiver. Reorganization of the use of time by family caregivers and provision of formal support can reduce the caregiving burden and benefit the well-being of caregivers.

“…This is a cross‐sectional prospective study enrolling 65 individuals older than 60 years with normal cognition, amnestic MCI, or AD outpatients recruited in the Jenny de Andrade Faria Institute of Elderly of the Clinic Hospital—Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) in 2012. Diagnosis of probable sporadic AD form was determined according to criteria by McKhann et al, classified as mild form according to Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) scale (Mckhann et al, 2011). For diagnosis of MCI, the criteria by Petersen et al were used .…”
